To turn the system back ON, press the traction control
switch a second time until the traction control Indicator
turns OFF.
NOTE:
• The traction control system comes on each time the
ignition switch is turned ON. This will occur even if
you used the button to turn the system OFF.
• The Traction Control system will make buzzing or
clicking sounds when in operation.
BRAKE ASSIST SYSTEM (BAS) — IF EQUIPPED
BAS is standard on vehicles equipped with electronic
stability program (ESP). The BAS is designed to optimize
the vehicle’s braking capability during emergency brak-
ing maneuvers. The system applies optimum pressure to
the brakes in emergency braking conditions than might
otherwise be afforded solely by the driver’s braking style.
This can help reduce braking distances. The BAS comple-
ments the antilock brake system (ABS). Applying the
brakes very quickly results in the best BAS assistance. To
receive the benefit of the system, you must apply con-
tinuous braking power during the stopping sequence. Do
not reduce brake pedal pressure.
